What keeps it engaging is improvisation. It keeps changing. It never stops. It’s at the heart of all great music…and it’s in the DNA of the members of the Chameleon Project. Touring heavy between 2002 and 2003, Chameleon Project suffered the loss of their bass player late last year. Now with a revamped band and hot new bass player... The Chameleon Project is now ready to take the music and touring to a new level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SmoothedShredder Posted March 30, 2005 Report Share Posted March 30, 2005 I've been looking forward to my first vinyl release. Say I just remembered I picked up Nirvana Insecticide at Sears back in the day... The early 90's were weird. Almost as weird as the 80's. http://x-entertainment.com/articles/0929/index.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Chameleon Posted March 30, 2005 Report Share Posted March 30, 2005 I just returned from the Miami Winter Music Conference, which is the largest meeting of DJs, producers and elkectronic music artists in the world, and the Chameleon Project vinyl was well recieved and was turning heads. The best response was from DJs, promoters and record labels in the UK. The Chameleon Project will be heading there eventually. BUT FIRST WE MUST ROCK THE EL MOCAMBO SO HARD IT TAKE OFF INTO SPACE!!!! on April15th Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
